I'm missing the rosette that goes into the header panel that surrounds the crank handle on my 62 ghia. I have not been able to source it, or find a good photo of one.
Is anyone making these, or selling used ones?
Seeing some of those new trims being made with 3d printers - wouldn't this be a great part to be reproduced this way?
Anyone have an extra one around?

Here's a picture I found it appears to be cast and chrome?

Sheesh Bluedot...  That's a photo of my car! You should just search my gallery. there's probably a photo of everything you ever need to see right there 
Here are some close ups. I've cropped them from wider shots.. so not a sharp as usual.
Yes it is chromed flat and held in place with a pair of countersunk phillips head screws. The part number is 141-871-595
KGPR has it and call it "CV Crank Handle Plate". You can see it here However they show the wrong picture. you should give them a call.
There is a label that goes under it is a circular thing with arrows pointing "Auf" and "Zu" ( see it at Gerry Held's site Here)

| It's a paint inspection sticker - definitely a finishing touch to all your cars with restored paint |
